Chapter 687: More People Are Coming (2/2)
This year is the transition period between the first and second phases of the Jiagu Desert development project, and many people are bound to leave, but there will be more people who will be added.
Soon after, Qi Zheng received good news.
The government of the Alashan League agreed to Jiagu's request and mobilized more farmers and herders to relocate to the Liangmo Reservoir and the vicinity of the Jiagu Oasis.
As a representative of herders, Naren Mandaji set foot for the first time in the Jiagu Oasis, which is becoming famous in the country and in Alashan.
From the long yellow sand to the verdant eyes, the mobile sand dunes that used to be "invincible when the wind rises" are now firmly locked by the green carpet. Under the scorching sun, the wind combs the forest and grass, there is no sand in the wind, blowing a trace of coolness, and the hideous desert in the impression suddenly becomes gentle and easy-going.
While contemplating the earth-shaking oasis, the first herders to relocate here, Nergentu, greeted him.
As soon as the two looked at each other, they knew that they were all the same kind of peopleβthe same physical characteristics: the same dark and shiny skin, the same rough and calloused palms, and similar personality traits: stubborn temper and tenacity.
They are all native herdsmen, living in the desert, like a sand nest in a sand nest, a little water can survive, and live extremely strong, and like a plant with roots buried deep under the sand dunes, clinging to the deep soil, building patches of green.
This made Nariman Daji's resistance less than a lot.
Nergentu understood the visitor's mind very well, and first took him to the new village of immigrants.
The new migrant village is built according to the standardized community model, which realizes central heating, unified cleaning, and unified sewage discharge. From the outside, the courtyard is hardened and complete, and the laneway is smooth and clean.
Nergentu opened the conversation: "Before the move, I lived in a 40-square-meter adobe house, where I ate and slept in one room, and had to burn a stove in winter. Now the adobe house has been replaced by a 115-square-meter building, and the toilet does not leave the house, the heating is not carbonized, and the cement road is right outside...... We also have a well-equipped hospital that provides convenient health care services, and the medical staff often give us free medical check-ups. In addition, there is no shortage of stadiums, reading rooms, supermarkets, etc., which can meet everyone's daily needs......"
Looking at such living conditions, Nariman Daji is not envious.
Don't think that herders don't want to live in beautiful and comfortable houses, after all, the pursuit of a better life is common to all people. Who would like to live in an adobe house that will be covered by wind and sand at any moment, if they can?
Looking at Nariman Daji, who was silent but didn't roll his eyes, Nergantu smiled and said, "I can understand your concerns. To be honest, I was in the same mood before the move. Seeing that the herdsmen who moved out to settle down are living a prosperous and stable life, they have the idea of relocation, but they are worried about the way out after the relocation. β
Nariman Daji sighed and said, "That's the reason, if you don't see it with your own eyes, no one has the bottom in their hearts." β
Nergantu said "hey": "We didn't have anything to see in person at that time, didn't we also break through?" Don't worry, no matter farming or grazing, there is a way out here, if you want to see it, I'll take you to see it." β
Saying that, Nergen tried to pass through the door of the house, and led him straight to the pasture.
Enter the long grass in the middle of the oasis and you can see the cattle.
"The desert with water is turning into a good pasture, and the Jiagu company provides calves, and we join the cooperative to breed more than 15,000 Sanqin cattle in our cooperative alone. Such a scale of cattle raising was unimaginable in the past. Nergantu pointed to the herd and said with emotion.
"Good cow!" Nariman Daji squinted his eyes and looked at the spirit of the herd, and he couldn't help but praise.
"That is, if you want to say that the cattle that eat grass, where the quality is the best, it must be the cattle in the desert. You haven't tasted it, tsk, tsk......" Nerggentu recalled.
That's what Narimanda Daji believes.
The sun in the desert is very fierce, hot like a fire, and the ultraviolet rays are also very strong, so it has a very good bactericidal effect. And isolated, all kinds of viruses and plagues, it is impossible to invade here.
The cattle that survive here are very healthy and do not need antibiotics and medicines.
This kind of beef can taste the taste of the food itself.
Nergantu smacked his lips and said, "You'll have a chance to taste it later." In short, with this cattle raising, the per capita annual income in our banner has increased more than ten times from less than 4,000 yuan in the past, and this is just the beginning. β
More than ten times, this immediate effect immediately suppressed Nariman Daji.
How long has it been since Nerggentu moved here to be so rich?
Ignoring Nariman Daji, who was full of calculations, Nerman Daji took out the copper pipe that had been with him for decades, filled it with tobacco leaves, squinted his eyes and smacked it, and went to fill a handful of material for a crooked-necked camel on the other side.
Turning to see Narimandaji's looking gaze, Nergantu's big rough hand rubbed the back of the camel's neck in distress, and explained: "This is an old fellow who has been with me for many years, and when he was carrying water a few years ago, he fell off the sand dune and broke his neck, and he became what he is now. I was reluctant to sell it, and now that life is better, it should have a good life. β
At this point, Nariman Daji was convinced that Otgentu was doing well - a crooked neck camel could be served as a real old man, and life could not be easy?
As if hearing his heart, Nergentu said solemnly: "As for feelings, in fact, I don't want to leave my hometown. But brother, you must know that the grassland that raised our ancestors is no longer as generous as before, and it is our turn to do something for the grassland. The government is right to return grazing land to grassland. Besides, moving here not only has a lot of income, but also benefits the children and grandchildren. β
Nariman Daji stood still for a long time before he nodded slowly and said, "Move! When I go back, I will mobilize our flags and move them all here." Brother, I will be taken care of in the future. β
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Nergentu smacked his cigarette in satisfaction.
......
Under the appearance of these "pioneers" in Aortgentu, more and more farmers and herdsmen in the Alashan League began to accept the government's arrangements and move in an orderly manner in the direction of the Jiagu Oasis.
In order to cooperate with the government to resettle farmers and herdsmen, Wei Mingdu had to suspend the handover work and make every effort to arrange the relocation work.
The oasis base first sent cars to haul away the luggage, the frail elderly and children for the farmers and herdsmen, and the rest drove the sheep and camels on the road.
Before entering the Jiagu Oasis, the old people of the Love Stack took out the cleanest felt, knelt on the ground, and bowed in the direction of their hometown.
With the support of Jiagu employees, I stood up and turned around, and I could see rows of tall shuttles, red buildings, neat lanes, and most importantly, ...... An oasis of abundant water and grass.
The old man smiled brightly, and the child cheered - for the herdsmen personally, it may have been the loss of their homeland, but they opened the door to a new world!
This scene was faithfully recorded by reporter Wu Lei's lens.
